Opening up a world of education

Children love to learn. If they are denied access to knowledge, we also deny them the opportunity to change their lives for the better.

Calendar icon
In partnership with EAC, the GSS Education for Out of School Children Project addresses the barriers to education faced by low income families and children living in rural, remote area and in urban slums of Bangladesh through low cost primary education using active learning techniques.
Education for Out of School Children in Bangladesh

The project has two main objectives:

re-launch 575 unused schools to provide primary education to a total number of 104,700 OOSC and strengthen and develop the schools’ overall communications, documentation and management capacity.  To do this, GSS will repair and re-launch 575 three-room GSS schools; recruit and train 1,800 teachers; recruit and train 200+ supervisory staff; form 575 School Development Committees (SDCs) and facilitate meetings; provide new textbooks and course materials for students; review and refine curriculum and materials for grades 1-5; and achieve over 86% of learner excellence in the key competencies. This will require hiring program administration staff, forming a secretariat to conduct fundraising and to maintain stakeholder relationships, recruiting new management staff at the headquarters, and delivering major workshops on primary education capacity building annually.
